Re: Shadowmourne

Val'anyr will still be relevant well into ICC.
No, my irritation stems from the fact that melee classes ALWAYS get ridiculous shit like this. Sulfuras, Thunderfury, and now Shadowmourne. Thori'dal and Atiesh were both nearly joke legendaries that were almost virtually inaccessible to 99% of the raiding population.

You obviously didn't play pre bc if you think any 2h users benefited from Sulfuras. That was replaced into AQ40, and by the GM weapons ten fold. Not to mention lawlnaxxramas. Sulf didn't remain "legendary" for very long.

Sulfuras was used well into AQ40, which was 2 tiers above where you get it (MC). Also, GM weapons were exceedingly hard to get (until they changed how you got the weapons it was more rare and took more effort than any legendary ever).

Shadowmourne: Light years better than any fucking two-hander ever, incredible proc that stacks up to 360 extra Strength, A WHOLE TIER BETTER than any other ICC loot

I believe it's quested for, so the only thing plate wearers might argue about is who gets to loot the quest items to make it(ice shards from the throne), and that's if they're one person per loot.

And warriors won't be able to dual wield this, as I think you can only get one.
